カラダは全部、つながっている。
そんなあたりまえのことを忘れている。
断片的に見ていても、未病は見つからない。

Mibyō measures start with self-knowledge.

Everything in the body is interconnected, though we often forget this obvious fact. A fragmented perspective won’t detect mibyō, the state between health and illness, where one is gradually moving toward sickness.

Heading toward illness is unsettling. Even without symptoms, tests may reveal abnormalities, showing you were in a state of mibyō all along. As someone who often indulges in unhealthy habits but excuses it because I feel fine, this really resonates with me.
In simple terms, mibyō is the stage before illness. Even if you’re unaware, your body is giving off signs, so it’s crucial not to overlook them,” says Yuko Hisashi, a Body Maintenance Therapist.
For example, if a small rash appears on your palm, rather than ignoring it until it goes away, you should consider the possibility of mibyō. You need accurate knowledge about your body to understand what that rash is signaling.

But how do you detect signs that don’t show physically? “There are various ways, such as checking for body misalignment in a full-length mirror. A simple example is diet. Today, processed foods are easily accessible, but we should first question if they’re harmful.” Regularly reviewing your diet and watching for additives can help spot potential mibyō.
Reevaluating your diet can be difficult, especially with busy lifestyles. If you frequently eat out, it’s essential to know how to detoxify your body after consuming harmful substances. The key is having a comprehensive understanding of health, not just fragmented knowledge.” This is why Yuko Hisashi is preparing a seminar that covers a wide range of health knowledge.
“I once met someone with digestive issues, but they insisted they were fine because they were taking care of their gut. It turned out to be periodontal disease.” Can oral health affect digestion? “Yes, the mouth and gut are connected, sharing similar bacteria. Periodontal bacteria can travel to the gut, so it’s important to consider oral health when digestive problems arise.” The body is truly interconnected. Understanding your whole body is essential for detecting mibyō, and deep self-awareness is key to preventing it.
